It left Southampton, England, then made its first stop in Cherbourg, France, its second stop in Queenstown (now named Cobh), Ireland and then headed for its final objective: New York City

No. Titanic did not stop at Cork but she DID stop at Queenstown which is now Cobh.
Queensland (Cobh) was the final pick-up point on the Maiden Voyage of Titanic. On her maiden voyage she had also stopped at Cherbourg, France and Southampton, England (her origin).
The last stop was at Queensland (now named Cobh, pronounced Cove) Fantastic exhibition there showing photos's I'd never seen before taken by a priest on board before Titanic sailed.
After leaving Belfast, Ireland, Titanic made her first stop (for a week) in Southampton, England.
When it sunk, the Titanic was about 1,000 miles from it's planned stop in New York City, New York. It sank 400 miles off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada.
The last land she was near was Ireland altho she was too big to actually moor there. She had tenders deliver passengers, supplies, and mail.
Titanic ran along side of the iceberg, and it ripped a gash in the hull. This let lots of water in, and because they couldn't stop the water coming in, pump it out fast, or isolate the affected compartments, the ship sank.
Yes, Titanic had an accident before she sunk. In 1912, RMS Titanic hit a berg in the North Atlantic and sunk. Later, Carpathia arrived in New York with 712 survivors.
The Titanic's last stop was Cork, Ireland
Queenstown, Ireland, before she went on to the Altantic and met her fate
Queenstown in Co.Cork, Southern Ireland- the town is now renamed Cobh.
The RMS Titanic was supposed to land in New York, but hit an iceberg before it got there. The RMS Titanic now lies on the bottom of the Atlantic ocean.
